[0020] Preferably, the frame is provided with a connecting base serving as a base connected to the palletizing robot; in the present application, as a part of the palletizing robot, the connecting base is assembled on the mechanical arm of the palletizing robot through a bolt structure, which will not be described in detail in the present application.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the embodiments of the present application have the following beneficial effects:

[0022] The palletizing robot clamp provided by the utility model uses a cylinder as a driving device for a movable plate, thereby realizing a large-stroke distance adjustment between the movable plate and a fixed base plate, meeting the clamping needs for palletizing of different specifications, and compensating for the short stroke of the clamp of the palletizing robot in the prior art, which cannot greatly adjust the distance to meet the clamping needs of palletizing of more sizes.
